"This journey started in 2013 when, after years of crafting wines in Chile and in different corners of the planet, I decided to make a big life change. I wanted to start a different type of project, one with a strong sense of place and my own vision of what a vineyard can express. I found my dream location in Lolol, in a small valley surrounded by granite hills, where the vines grow under the influence of cooling mountain and sea breezes that lend the wine its beautiful floral character. My goal is to bring to life a wine that evokes the passion behind the bottle, the expression of a unique vineyard personality, the love for nature, the understanding of the grape as it transforms into wine. It is a singular vision in some ways, but with a lot of attention to detail. The wine making involves very little intervention. The aim is to interpret in the best possible way this place, its life and all the magic that surrounds it."

Located in the coastal region of the Colchagua Valley, it is the vines of Malbec that make this wine shine. The region enjoys a Mediterranean climate: 600mm rainfall per year concentrated in winter, moderate to high temperatures in summer moderated by the breeze that comes from the mountains in the morning and the ocean in the afternoon. It is a small valley surrounded by mountains from which the soils with decomposed granite originated, in variable depths depending on the slope. A loamy-sand texture provides the wine with its unique floral aromas.
